From the Stoughton Public Library: LIBRARY RENOVATION PROJECT UPDATE

The Stoughton Public Library Trustees and Building Committee would like to notify the public that we plan to move to a temporary location for approximately 18 months during the renovation and expansion project. The estimated move date is now early May of 2017, and the temporary location will be located next to the True Value Hardware store at 529 Washington Street.

The Library may be closed to the public for up to 2 weeks in order to pack, move, unpack and set up for service. We will notify the public of the exact time line once we have a confirmed move in date. We apologize for any inconveniences during this process. Please remember that the Stoughton Public Library is part of a wonderful, sharing network, OCLN (Old Colony Library Network), and you are all welcome in all our network libraries. Locations and hours of operation can be found at www.ocln.org.

More information will follow. Please call the library for updates or visit our website at www.stoughtonlibrary.org or follow us on Facebook.

LIBRARY NO LONGER ACCEPTING BOOK & MOVIE DONATIONS

Due to our impending move to a smaller space during the renovation of the library, we will no longer accept donations of materials. This includes books, movies, music and audiobooks. The closest donation container to the library is right up the street in the Jones School parking lot.
